In the latest episode of What The Health? CCAP Across The Map Co-Founders Jillian Leaver and Hunter Ackerley talk to Dr. Gail Peterson Hock. Dr. Hock's practice has spanned hospital and school nursing, family planning, and a decade as nursing faculty. Her clinical practice largely focuses on raising immunization awareness and rates in collaboration with The Arizona Partnership for Immunization, the Arizona Cancer Coalition, and the National Cervical Cancer Coalition.

Dr. Hock talks with Jillian and Hunter about HPV and it's links to cervical cancer, the importance of getting the HPV vaccine, how to advocate for immunizations and health policies, and the human side of cervical cancer.
